  • Panasonic DMC-FX55

She won a camera the last time round! so did yvonne. jen had a LG MP3 player complete with its classic case and i won the 8.1 megapixel camera. am contemplating to sell it away and then buy myself a sony. should i? specs of the camera can be found here. hmmm.. am really tired. sleeping time. night.

  • the last present of 2007

    just hours before the last of 2007 ended, i received the last present of the year.. and doorbell rang and startled me. hardly anyone would ring the doorbell at almost 10pm at night! my house is a corner unit and is always quiet. anyway, this was hand delivered.. all the way from hongkong. upon opening the box… this is what is it inside. i am touched. because it’s an expensive present. because it was hand carried all the way from hongkong. because i was thought about while someone is travelling. well, am happy.

  • christmas

    christmas is over in a jiff. there wasn’t anything exceptional about it, nor was i very happy to be spending the day. in the past, christmas was a special day.. because it will trigger the memories of mine some 13 years ago.. this year, there wasn’t any thoughts about those at all. maybe i have let those memories go. i spent christmas eve feeling a tad loss and distraught. stranded and sandwiched. i thought about what i really want, but somehow.. i didn’t have a conclusion. ushered the christmas day in with a midnight movie – I am legend. also went to pay respects to uncle on christmas day because…

  • a present

    this christmas.. i made a special present for a colleague of mine. thought it would be a sweet gift while she is basking in the joys of being newly wed.. and something that she could display in her new nest. silly me forgot to take a picture of the end product after it is being framed and hastily wrapped it up for her in the office yesterday while she is still out for lunch. so this is what it looks like raw. really hope that she likes it. i had to rush this out amidst my travelling plans and tedious work load in nov and dec. 🙂

  • It’s the eve!

    Picture compliments from my colleague sylvia who sits beside me.. With the comment, “cherie, here’s your hill of presents!” It’s the merry season and my desk is so messy! For the last couple of days.. I kinda enjoy sleeping late, waking up really late, and snooze in bed for the longest time. 5 days just swifted by! Gawd. 8 more days to enjoy with some days dedicated to clear some work and emails. =) Am on my way to town for last minute shopping and hope everyone have a good christmas! Merry christmas! =) [mobile post on train @ novena]

  • Pressies

    Can you spot a present with your name on it? Christmas mood not yet felt by me, and i haven’t started my christmas shopping for presents.. Last night, i spent a long time sorting out and wrapping the only christmas presents that i bought when i was in thailand. Looks like i gotta battle the crowd tomorrow to start my christmas shopping. I feel so tired today. Gonna be a long day! Lunch appt with the Lj gang at 12pm, meeting at 2pm, and gonna leave the office at 4.30pm for an event by singpost and then the department dinner afterwards. That doesn’t leave me much time to clear my…
